Preventive Care

Dental Care
Brushing your pet’s teeth is the single most effective means to maintain dental health between professional dental cleanings. This 5-minute video gives easy, step-by-step instructions on how to teach a dog or cat to accept a daily tooth brushing...
Vaccination
Yes. The basic FVRCP (“feline distemper combo”) is vital to protecting kittens and adults from specific serious viruses and keeping up their immunity to reduce degree of illness, especially with the common cold virus strains that infect cats. One extremely common cold virus among cats, feline rhinotracheitis (in the herpes virus family) is carried dormantly for life, and a stress event can cause it to start replication and re-emerge. Immunization at proper intervals helps keep this virus from overtaking a cat and causing chronic uncomfortable symptoms or more serious events such as loss of an eye. Rabies vaccination of pet cats is a protective practice required by law because Rabies Virus infection is a fatal disease. Animal bites including cat bites to a human or other pet causes risk for Rabies; other serious infections result from cat bites to humans and are a reportable condition to the health department. Quarantine of a pet is issued by the health department with no exceptions. Fairfax City, Fairfax County, and the Commonwealth of Virginia all require rabies vaccination by law. All these jurisdictions have reported Rabies cases (Virginia Epidemiology information) every month in cats, raccoons, skunks, foxes, bats or other species. All mammals can be infected with Rabies.
Veterinary Ophthalmology
We also have excellent relationships with many board-certified specialists in areas such as internal medicine, critical care, surgery, cardiology, dermatology, ophthalmology, and oncology.
Nutritional Counseling
To keep informed of pet nutrition concerns such as pathogens and inappropriate or unhealthy levels of nutrients; see www.petnutritionalliance.org.

Illness Treatment

Parasites Treatment and Control
The CDC, the CAPC (Council on Parasite Control), the American Heartworm Society, and other epidemiology agencies report that indoor cats have about the same exposure to mosquitoes as outdoor cats, and Virginia has a Heartworm infection rate of 2.2%. That is 1 in 49 cats. Flea eggs and larvae live in the soil, wood piles, mulch, and are carried indoors easily. Visiting dogs and cats that are infected drop off flea eggs everywhere they go. Flea eggs, larvae, and pupal cocoons can remain dormant for over a year in a house and molt and emerge when conditions change. The prevalence of roundworms, hookworms, tapeworms, continues to be high in our pet cats and all are infectious to both humans and cats (and dogs, and other species). With the climate changing and the global movement of people and pets, these infections are no longer limited to the warmest and southernmost areas of the United States. For example, in the state of New York, Heartworm infections in cat is 2.6%.
Behavioral Disorder Treatment
Pain Management
Dr. Bolton’s interests within feline medicine include geriatrics, dentistry, pain management, and internal medicine. Along these lines, Dr. Bolton has invested in significant continuing education on all the above topics with a focus on feline dentistry as this procedure is our most common surgery for feline patients. Dr. Bolton is a member of the American Association of Feline Practitioners, the American and Virginia Veterinary Medical Associations, and the Veterinary Information Network.
Diarrhea Treatment
Skin Condition and Allergy Treatment
Injury Treatment

Chronic Condition Treatment

Hip Dysplasia Treatment
Although more research is needed, many veterinarians are seeing effective improvement after therapeutic laser treatment in cats. More cat owners need to watch for displays of pain or mobility problems, especially since cats are very adept at hiding their pain or discomfort, and check their observations with their regular vet. Therapeutic lasers (very different from surgical lasers) operate at low-levels to “painlessly penetrate below the skin to help in healing.” Many benefits for cats include improvement in wound healing; sprains or strains in muscles, ligaments, and tendons; arthritis and degenerative disc and joint disease; post-surgical trauma; hip dysplasia; and inflammation.
Obesity Treatment
